Section 482-2, Hawaii Revised Statutes, provides that an applicant for registration of trade name must file an application with the Director of Commerce and Consumer Affairs, certifying that the applicant is the sole and original proprietor of the trade name or the assign of the proprietor. Ownership of a trade name is acquired by adoption and use of the trade name. Before filing an application, an applicant should check the computerized list of registered names to determine if there is a registration that is substantially identical to the name he wishes to register. A check should also be made in the telephone directory of each island, the city directory and with the Department of Taxation. When an application is filed, the Business Registration Division will make a search of the registrations on record to determine that there is no other registration that is the same or substantially identical to the trade name applied for. Section 482-3, HRS, provides that the registration will be for a term of five years from the date of filing. Registrations may be renewed for additional periods of five years from the date of renewal by filing an application and $50.00 fee within six months prior to the expiration date.
